As some of you might recall, I had teething problems with my Fenix FD45. My batteries could not supply enough oomph for the flashlight at 900 lumens.
While I posted the problem here, I also emailed Fenix.
I just got a mail back that they do not recommend the usage of Eneloops in their lights. They claim the Eneloops releases a gas, that can corrode the flashlight, since it is waterproof and the gas cannot escape.
How true is this?
They recommended that I should rather buy this: https://www.fenix-store.com/aa-tenergy-ni-mh-rechargeable-batteries-4-pk-in-case/
